Hey all, I'm 14, 5'7 and I weigh 165. I go to a very small school and I'm friends with everyone. I have tons of friends and a caring boyfriend and a good life at school. But my parents are getting a divorce. I get soooo depressed I eat. I have gained 30 pounds since last year and I feel awful! I play basketball and fast pitch softball. I'm Pres. of our FCA group, I'm a representative for FBLA, I'm active in 4-h and I'm on the academic team. Why am I not losing weight? Cause I eat like a pig. I'm on a very big diet. I only eat 3 meals a day and 1 snack. I feel very confident right now. I'm willing to talk to anyone bout n*e thing. My e-mail is sports_chic_25@hotmail.com I'm very entergetic my friends describe me as crazy so don't hesitate to talk to me(guys and gurls). God #1.

hi all i am 13, 5'6" and 135 lb, which is only 1 lb. under the overweight line I have a very fat stomach that folds over when i sit and big thighs. all my friends are like 110 and think 135 is super fat because they have no fat on them so i am the only kid with extra fat. They are all thinner than me and i can never borrow pants or anything cuz i wont fit! it is hard for me to lose this fat but i want to and need help.

Hey y'all, I'm just writing to say that I started this year off at being 5'6" and weighing 160 pounds, but when October started, I just got really active and started to really observe what I was eating and so far I have gotten my weight down to 141 pounds, and yes, I still am 5'6". Recently I was watching Tv and a report said that Canadian kids were getting more and more obese, and that scared me quite a bit, did anyone else hear this? Any comments? Also I took the BMI calculator on this site and it said that my ideal weight was between 101 and 149 pounds, which kinda made me feel mad, because if I was ever to go below 120 pounds, I would have to go to a hospital because, my bones would be popping out everywhere, and I'd be sick. Has anyone else, noticed that the BMI calculator is somewhat...off??

From Daniel...READ THIS!, Age 18 - 11/27/00 - IP#: 24.113.8.25  Click here to reply
READ THIS! When I was about 10 or 11 I was 5'7 and weighed around 175.I was not lazy, but overweight and frowned apond by other kids. When I reached high school I knew that if I was going to exercise and eat right, I would have to do it for myself! not other people. What did I do? I started by doing weights.. not heavy weights, just reps of 12 or 15 that I could do in sets of 3 and 3 times a week. and for cardio? all I did was walk or run for 20 to 30 min a day 4 times a week. When deciding what to eat, I tryed to think of healthy yet good tasting food. IMPORTANT, when you eat fruits, vegtables, whole grain, beans and protein.. lots of protien.. your helping your body burn fat! I continued to eat the above and continue my weights and running. When you workout, your brain tells your body not to eat fatty foods! it keeps you very modivated and on task for exercise and healthy eating. You just have to remember not to (have a small snack before bed) only healthy! if you want some more advice or help.. I would be more than happy :) Good luck!!! Dan

Hey everyone. I am 5'8 and 220lbs!!! Ive been all around the net trying to find a site where i can relate to people and get encouragement to lose weight. But everywhere i go, people are whining about needing to lose like 5 lbs and saying they are fat.. That just makes me mad! lol. I know everyone has their proplems with themselvs, and they may think or be a little overweight.. But I feel so alone here! I need to lose like 70-90 lbs! Which is a heck of a lot! Is anyone out there anywhere near my weight and understands where im coming from?

Looking at these posts, I see most of you are trying to lose 10-20 pounds. Is there anyone (like me) who is heavier and trying to lose 50-60 pounds? I would love talking to other teens who also have severe weight problems, and are trying to lose a lot of weight. We could motivate each other to succeed. :o)-Arsa

I am 12 years old, 5'2" and about 110-115 pounds. I am very unsatisifed with my weight. I don't consider myself FAT, but overweight. All the other girls at my school are skinny, and the other day, this girl said she liked me pants, but they would probably fall down if she wore them. It really hurt my feelings, and I am very self-conscious about my weight now. I skateboard, but that doesn't seem to help. Please gimme some advice! I could really use it!
